A BROAD DENIAL.

Answer TO the Complaint of the Burton
ComPany-A Question Of Jurisdiction. .
WASHINGTON, May 3l.-J. F Tucker,
Assistant General Manager of the Chicago,
Milwaukee and st. Paul Railway Company
has made answer to the complaint prepared
against that company before the Inter
State Commerce Commission by the Burton
Stock Car Company.
The answer broadly denies the jurisdic-
tiOn of the Commission to grant the relief
prayed for or any other relief upon the
allegations made in the complaint.
1t also denies generally the truth of the
allegations respecting the lightneSs and
easy running of the Burton cars, and
afiirms that no exorbitent rates have been
charged for hauling them.
A. j. POppletOn, as attorney for the
Union Pacific Railway Company, also
makes answer to a like complaint by the
Burton Stock Car Company, covering sub
stantially the same points rs that made by
the Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul
Company.

Farmers Alliance, Of Minnesota, trans
mits a long list of requests by the Execu-
tive Commi4Sle OF the Alliance. looking
to vigorous enforcement of the Inter
State Commerce law-especially that part
relating to the long and short haul. The
Alliance take the ground that such busi-
ness interests rs can he sustained only by
reason of the suspension of the fourth sec
tion ought not TO be sustained at all. =
1t is better that the business of the
country be left to the natural law of trade
than that o few favored persons i'll certain
places should be able to organize and car
~ ON colossal enterprises because of adj
vantages i'll the use OF the railways of the
country.
A complaint has also been received from
VIM. II. Council (colored), directed against
the Western and Atlantic Railroad Com
pany, in which he AYERS that on account of
his color he was fOrcibly elected from a
first-class car after having paid for first
class ticket. He asks that the Commits
sion award him So, 600 damages and such
other relief as it may deem proper.
The Atlantic and North Carolina Rail
road Company has filed IN application for
the suspension of section of the Inter
State Commerce law rs far az it affects
Morehead City and Kingston. n. c., aver
ring that at both these points the water
competition will ruin its business unless
the relief sought is granted.

KISSANE RUN DOWN.
Found on His Ranch In Cal:fornia-thfter
Feeling Against His Prosecutors.

Found on His Ranch In Cal.fornia-tsitter
Feeling Against His Persecutors-
SAN Francisco, May 3l.-The where
abouts of William Kissane has been def
initely learned at last.
He is not secluded in Victoria, but re
mains at his ranch near Sonoma.
Deputy U. S. Marshal Hopkins went to
Sonoma three days ago, commissioned to
serve subpoena on him in the case entitled
Chemical National Bank OF New York
against VIM. KisSanea alias VIM. h. Rogers, "
an action brought to recover on certain al
legged forged notes in POSSESSION OF the bank.
Hopkins states that upon arriving IN
town he began inquiry among citizens oi
the place as To where kisane could be
found. The answer invariably was that
he had gone 10 British Columbia, coupled
with deuunciation of his supposed persecu-
tors. The deputy says, however, that be
found him at h ranch and served the pa.
pers on him. Hopkins says other suits OF
similar character will he started.
The deputy says that in Sonoma county
the feeling against Kissane's prosecutors Is
extremely bitter.
A dispatch from Helena, Ark, says: Mr..
Brundige the prosecuting attorney for this
district was questioned yeslsa,laS ccuccrn-
ing the Steps he had taken and contempla-
ted taking i'll the apprehension Of Billy
kiSSane.
Mr.. Brundige said he had searched dill
gently for the whereabouts OF the witnesses
and had learned that the most of the ma
terial ones were dead. As for the criminal
branch of his case, kisSane might rest
easy on that score. Mr.. Brundige did not
think anything could be done On the bond
which was given TO secure his appearance
at the Phillips County Circuit Court, as
time had outlawed the obligation Of the
bond.
General Dorr is still very active and
persistent in his endeavor to have kissane
suffer the penalties of his misdeeds. Brun'
dige has received a number of letters from
him, one as late rs last week, wherein he
made inquiries as 10 steps he intended ia
pursue in the matter. For six months al
least there will be no steps of any kind
taken AGAINST him from this court.
